In David Lewman's Stage Fright, the third funny book in the SpongeBob SquarePants Mystery middle-grade series, SpongeBob is back with a new partner and a new case that will take them through the mysterious corners of Bikini Bottom's theater world.

The Drippy Lane Theater is on its last legs. Luckily, an eccentric director comes to town to stage a new play, sure to grab everyone's attention--even King Neptune's!
